- Thursday, May 23, 8:54 AM Marathon Oil (MRO) -2.5% premarket after saying it failed to reach a deal with a prospective buyer for a portion of its 20% outside-operated interest in Alberta's Athabasca Oil Sands Project.

- Thursday, May 9, 11:30 AM The shale bonanza has sparked a switch in the behavior of oil firms: Companies have been selling off assets overseas and pumping money back into the U.S. Conoco (COP) has been involved in six major foreign sales in the past year totaling $11B, and much of it is being redirected into North Dakota and Texas shale. Other firms redirecting overseas assets to the U.S.: HES, DVN, APA, MRO, MUR, NBL. 3 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, May 8, 10:16 AM Marathon Oil (MRO +0.3%) joins Talisman Energy (TLM) in quitting its Polish shale gas operations due to poor drilling results, anticipating a complete exit by H2 2014.

- Thursday, April 25, 10:43 AM Cobalt Energy (CIE +1.8%), which has doubled in value since going public in 2009 but still trades at a substantial discount to the value of its underlying assets, is turning into a takeover target for energy companies attracted to its oil finds from Africa to the Gulf of Mexico, Bloomberg writes. CIE’s assets are "a needle mover" for a large international player, Guggenheim says. 1 Comment [Energy, M&A, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 3, 5:20 AM Marathon Oil (MRO) has reportedly put its 10% holdings in two Angolan offshore oil and gas fields up for sale, possibly as part of its plans to offload up to $3B worth of assets.

- Wednesday, March 20, 11:48 AM The big Shenandoah oil deposit, potentially one of the largest discoveries ever in the Gulf of Mexico, could contain 500M-1B boe, Citi analyst Robert Morris says in backing his Buy ratings for Anadarko (APC +3%), Cobalt (CIE +7.7%) and Marathon (MRO +0.8%). The discovery could boost APC's profits by $3-$6/share, CIE's by $2.50-$5/share and MRO's by $0.75-$1.50. 9 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 20, 8:43 AM Potential bidders for today’s Gulf of Mexico oil-lease round (including BP), with 7,000 deepwater blocks up for grabs, surely are heartened by Anadarko’s "potentially giant" find that dwarfs other discoveries in the Shenandoah Basin region. The success raises hopes the Gulf will remain an important oil-producing region for years to come. Premarket: APC +3%, COP +1.7%, CIE +7.3%, MRO +1.3%. Comment! [Energy]

- Monday, March 4, 2:59 PM Marathon Oil (MRO) hasn’t said publicly it’s searching for a successor to current CEO Clarence Cazalot, but Bloomberg says December's surprise resignation of its no. 2 man has it joining the growing ranks of energy firms seeking new leaders, including OXY, CHK, ECA, BBG and KKR's Samson Resources. With a bidding war looming, it's a good time to be an out-of-work energy exec. Comment! [Energy]
- Tuesday, February 19, 3:56 PM Marathon Oil (MRO +2.9%) shares hit a 52-week high after Oppenheimer raises its target price to $45 from $40 to reflect an improved outlook and attractive valuation. With an estimated free cash flow of $900M this year and $1.5B next year, the firm notes MRO is among a very few cash-flow-positive E&P companies; also, Eagle Ford volume should double this year, boosting MRO's production growth to 6%-8%.

DividendCatcher
I am looking at a nice, safe dividend stock preferably not at 52 week highs. I was thinking BP or MRO might be worth a look. Any suggestions - View all 8 replies

DividendCatcher: I have thought highly of BP. I am thinking that might be my next one. Oil will eventually go back up and BP will probably be a nice play.
